Got a new 6 PRC. So went out to get some rounds down the barrel, with a 1gr. lighter charged load than from what I had in my old 6 PRC. Bore sighted it, and then hit the range really quick with 12 rounds, just to make sure it liked the bullet/powder combo.
The gun was built by @barehandlineman at High Voltage Armory. I put a 3-18 Tenmile on it.
109 ELDM
60gr. N570
CCI 200
3320FPS
First 5 shots down the barrel
I made a quick zero adjustment based off the measurements given by my handy little app lol. Set the zero, and then just went straight to my target that I had at 780 yards to make sure the load would hold and check for drops really quick as well.
Shots 6,7 & 8 down the barrel
Then I dialed back to zero and and shot a .5” 4 shot group pretty centered up on the bullseye.
I went home, cleaned the barrel, and loaded up 100 rounds lol.
Obviously I’ll spend more time shooting the rifle before I’d really consider it dialed in and ready for longer range killing. But it really was that simple of a range trip for a brand new rifle and load.
